Finn, S.J.(read in 1936 or 1937) I read this book in 1936 or 1937. It was the first book by Father Finn which I read, and it was the first book he had published, in 1891. On page 389 of The Guide to Catholic Literature 1888-1940 it is shown that the book has 255 pages and its selling price was $1,25 and was publlshed by Benziger. The comment thereon is: "Tom is a thorough boy and his life in a Catholic boarding school is narrated in a lively style." The Catholic World in volume 64 at page 605 (Jan 1892) carried a note on the book. I know I was very caught up in the story when I read it--it was a book which we had at home and we did not have many books at our house.. I went on to read 10 more books by Father Finn--all I could lay hands on. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique

The story opens with 10-year-old Tom Playfair being quite a handful for his well-meaning but soft-hearted aunt. (Tom's mother has died.) Mr. Playfair decides to ship his son off to St. Maure's boarding school--an all-boys academy run by Jesuits--to shape him up, as well as to help him make a good preparation for his upcoming First Communion. Tom is less than enthusiastic, but his adventures are just about to begin. Life at St. Maure's will not be dull! Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
